๐Ÿ”’ Containment

Level: maximum

Required:
  • APPROVE_SEND: Can send messages
  • SANDBOX_CONTAINER: Code execution capability
Recommended:
  • LOG_ACTIONS: Audit trail for all actions

โšก Risks

Social engineering indicators: SOCIAL_ENG_VAGUE_DESCRIPTION low

Mitigation: Provide clear, detailed description of skill functionality

Tool poisoning: hidden behaviors detected (MCP_TOOL_POISONING_SENSITIVE_DATA) high

Mitigation: Remove references to sensitive data collection.

Data exfiltration patterns: DATA_EXFIL_NETWORK_REQUESTS, DATA_EXFIL_ENV_VARS, DATA_EXFIL_HTTP_POST, MCP_EXFIL_EXTERNAL_UPLOAD critical

Mitigation: Ensure network access is necessary and documented
